Social Norms-Based Messaging: A (Nonpolluting) Engine for Environmental Action

A talk from Robert Cialdini, New York Times Best-Selling Author of Influence and Pre-Suasion

Social norms are remarkably powerful in directing human action. Studies have shown that communications that use social norms-based appeals for pro-environmental behavior are superior to those that use traditional appeals, but this motivating power is often used incorrectly.
